Newt Gingrich’s blunt warning on The Ingraham Angle landed like a splash of cold water: we now live in a more dangerous world and Washington’s policies are failing to meet the moment. He pointed to a steady drumbeat of violent attacks abroad and a foreign policy that too often avoids naming the enemy or confronting them with decisive strength. Americans deserve leaders who will tell the truth about the threats we face and act to protect our families and our country.
Gingrich laid the blame where it belongs — on flaccid leadership and an administration more interested in optics and virtue signaling than in stopping killers who target innocents. From terrorist stabbings and truck attacks overseas to mass shootings inspired by extremist ideology, the pattern is clear and growing. When national security is treated as a checkbox for political correctness rather than a core function of government, ordinary citizens pay the price.
He also called out the cultural rot inside our own institutions: a “woke” military and a State Department distracted by ideological posturing while enemies take notes. This isn’t a theoretical gripe — it’s a strategic disaster that left us exposed in Afghanistan and signals weakness to China, Iran, and other adversaries. We should demand a military focused on victory, not woke curricula, and diplomats whose first priority is America’s interests, not identity politics.
Gingrich urged a return to hard-headed policies: rebuild our deterrent, revamp intelligence priorities, and be ruthless in hunting down terror networks and their enablers. Soft-power platitudes and endless apologies do not keep a single American safe; effective power and clear-eyed resolve do. If Washington won’t act, the American people must insist on leaders who will restore strength and respect for our country.
The former speaker didn’t shy away from linking foreign chaos to failures at home, including porous borders and hollowed-out institutions that embolden our enemies. When our southern border is treated as a political afterthought, and our armed forces are distracted from their mission, it creates openings that bad actors exploit. Conservatives should make national security the top litmus test for every officeholder — because weakness at home invites danger abroad.
Gingrich’s remedy is unapologetically American: prioritize strength, stop the political games, and put competent people back in charge of defense and diplomacy. That means supporting leaders who will secure the border, fund our military properly, and refuse to accept the normalization of terror. The choice is stark — continued decline under feckless elites, or a renaissance of American power and pride.
Patriots should take Gingrich’s warning as a call to action, not a mere headline. We can restore safety and order if we demand real policy changes, elect accountable leaders, and refuse to let political correctness dictate security. The country our grandparents defended deserves nothing less than our full-throated fight for a safer, stronger America.
